Strategic Review
The editorial team that manages Strategic Review recently received an email from one of our younger contributors. A part from thanking us for sending her the largest publication fee she had ever received - and believe us, it was not grandiose - we also were praised for editing it in a from that made it highly readable. In turn, we are of course pleased with the response from one of our contributors, since this represents one of the esential planks of the philosophy behind the publication. While we are committed to thye maintenance of a public forum that includes the top names in academic research, think tanks, major institutions and governments to push the debate on the essential questions that confront Indonesia, we also believe it is our duty to encourage the nations younger researchers. There is a saying in the academic communities of amny countries that young researchers must ""publish or perish"". For many, particularly in Indonesia, the question those researchers ask is where? There is a shortage of academic journals, and particularly those of quality. While Strategic Review does not confrom to some of the rules normally adhered to by the academic media (we do not publish footnotes, for instance), we certainly to want to offer the work of emerging young tinkersas part of the debate about Indonesiaand its future. If we were to insiston only allowing the work of established writers to grace our pages, we would be doing our readers and the country as a whole a disservice. Since we represent in many ways the hopes of a nation for a stronger, wiser Indonesia of the future, it would be particularly hypocritical of us to reject the work of the researchers of the future. To the Contrary, we seek them out and, as our correspondent noted, do our best to make their articles as readable as possible.
